Romance
Boasting a prime spot on the exclusive Côte d'Azur - an area characterised by beauty, charm and romance - Byblos is an unrivalled destination for your next couple's retreat. Stroll hand-in-hand through the hotel's extensive lavender gardens, or take to the dramatic blue waters on a private yacht, stopping at a hidden cove for a gourmet picnic and uninterrupted quality time together. Harmonise with indulgent side-by-side treatment in the Private Spa Suite, designed for two, before a glass of wine overlooking the striking sunset, followed by an exquisite meal at a candlelit table for two.
Culture & History
In Byblos, Lebanon in 1960, founder of the hotel, Jean-Prosper Gay-Para, admitted his infatuation with Brigitte Bardot and his desire to build "a palace worthy of the Thousand and One Nights, unique in its kind, from one side of the Mediterranean to the other." With utter success, the doors of Byblos have been crossed by an array of the astoundingly rich and the truly celebrated - including Bardot herself, Cher, and Mick Jagger, for his honeymoon, to name just a few. Meanwhile in glamorous St-Tropez, the gracefully converted 16th-century chapel, Musée de l'Annociade, showcases an impressive collection of modern art, whilst the Citadelle de St-Tropez was built in 1602 to defend the coast against Spain.
Hotel Experiences
For pure privacy on your luxury St Tropez holiday, choose to stay in one of the ‘Byblos Confidential’ collection of four exclusive, luxury apartments. Set around the hamlet-style hotel, they blend contemporary interiors with timeless charm and glorious views, while sleeping up to eight guests. Additional benefits include a tailor-made mini bar, in-room breakfast, pastries served in-room at afternoon tea time, a well-stocked Byblos beach bag, an iPad or computer, and complimentary stays for children under six years old.
Luxury Beach
Just a ten-minute drive from the hotel, the exclusive beach club is located on the stunning Pampelonne bay, perfectly combining fine sand, Mediterranean sunshine, incredible dining and seamless service that is a natural extension of the Hotel Byblos experience. As well as true luxury and delicious island-inspired cuisine at the 100-seater restaurant, Byblos Beach is completely eco-oriented with a plastic ban, monitored water consumption and completely wooden structures. As the sun sets, laid-back music and creative cocktails await.
